**Steps to replicate the issue** (include links if applicable):
* on a DiscussionTools-enabled talk page, click on "reply" and start typing, then close the browser tab
* follow a DiscussionTools permalink to a comment on a different part of the same page
**What happens?**:
The page loads with the permalinked comment centered in the viewport, then immediately scrolls the open comment box with your unfinished comment into view.
**What should have happened instead?**:
The permalink should take priority and the viewport should remain centered on the comment specified in the anchor.
**Software version** (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):
Seen on Wikimedia. I think this has been the case for a long time.
**Other information** (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.):
Chrome 115 / Windows 11.
